"Tyler installed a complete septic system for our new home construction project. This included a 2000 gallon concrete tank with a distribution box and 165â of leach field. The installation was completed ahead of schedule and the site was finish graded very nicely upon completion. The system design engineer and the city building inspector both signed off with positive comments on the quality of work. We used Tyler to trench and install our water connection as well. We intend to use his services in the future also. We highly recommend him."

"I called on a Saturday morning when no other company was answering calls. They picked up and said they would be here Monday morning. They were very professional yet also let me watch and learn how to take care of my tank. I also had a clogged line and they "jetted" it and I was instantly up and running. I learned so much, I don't think I will ever need emergency service again. I will call them back in 3 or 4 years so I won't stress my system and incur more problems!"

"Hey! Santos Bros answered their phone, booked us to replace our water heater and was here 2 hours later. We have a super tight spot between our furnace and wall with a special sized 40 gallon tank. Nate got the old one out and replaced it with the right size tank, no problem. It was difficult to pull the old one out but he did a great job. Stellar service. 5 STARS. Highly recommend."

"My friend recently had some work done at his house and recommended him. I called and told him what I was looking to do and he was honest and told me how I could save money and do it myself. walked me through the process and told me who to call with the city and approximate time frames. You don't come across this type of "good people" too often these days. I highly recommend Wilber Construction. Randy will be my first call in the future for any type of construction work. Thanks Randy!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Well water is often assumed to be hard because of its high mineral content. Hard water can lead to mineral build-up in your pipes and appliances. You can manage hard water by installing a whole-house filter system. These systems can help extend the life of your water-reliant appliances like your hot water tank and dishwasher. 

Your septic tank naturally contains the good bacteria it needs, so you typically don't have to add more as the system produces them on its own. However, if you wish to replenish the bacteria, you can use natural methods. For example, you can add three rotten tomatoes to your garbage disposal or flush 1/4 ounce of active yeast down the toilet every three months. While store-bought septic enzymes and chemicals are available, many additives are unnecessary and may even harm your system. The most effective way to maintain a healthy bacterial balance is to avoid using chemical drain cleaners, which can kill the beneficial bacteria in your tank.

A septic tank is an underground container that collects and holds wastewater until it’s sufficiently filtered and broken down. It treats wastewater by separating waste so the leftover liquid can travel into the drainfield where the soil and gravel eventually filter and purify it. This process naturally eliminates bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants.

How do you set your well’s pressure tank? All you need to do is first drain the tank of water and find the pressure switch. Remove the switch cover and adjust the switch with a wrench—clockwise to increase water pressure, and counter-clockwise to reduce it. Each complete turn of the nut on the switch should equal 2.5 psi. Once this is done, replace the switch cover. All that’s left is to adjust the pressure of the tank itself using an air compressor and a tire gauge to support the new setting.

Leach lines are commonly made of PVC pipe, and they’re placed into trenches filled with gravel and sand, which help treat the wastewater. The PVC pipes are perforated, or drilled with small holes, so the wastewater can drain out of the pipes and into the surrounding material, which eventually leads to the aquifer.
